found the paint color discussion interesting in that I painted my 59 TR3A
Cotswold Blue in 2001. My local auto paint store had a 59 Triumph color code
sheet in one of their books and they scanned it to mix up my paint. I saw a
picture of a Jag XK150 on a magazine cover a while back and it said it was
Cotswold Blue and it looked very close to my color. I attached 3 other XK150
pictures and they all show colors close to mine. I just Googled “cotswold blue
xk150” to find these. Actually, when I type “cotswold blue tr3a” into Google,
the first picture I see is my TR3A with the white top on it. While I think the
blue in the car ad Randall posted is attractive, I am not sure where they are
getting Cotswold Blue from that.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></P>
